Chapter 11

Lyra’s povI walked out of the room, the cold stone floor biting at my feet. It was dark in the hallway, and silent. I walked down toward where I knew there were cleaning supplies. I found a bucket, a rag, and a tiny bottle of soap.I began to clean the floors and walls around me, my mind racing with the thought of escape. There had to be a way to get out of here.I crouched on the stairs, washing each one with the wet rag I held. The pain in my arms became unbearable and my knees ached after having knelt upon stone for so long. Each step succeeded another until they reached close to one hundred and I had washed them all, every fraction of an inch, while darkness lingered outside.I stood up to sigh as I stretched my back. “A hundred steps and counting,” I sighed as I let out a small sigh of relief as I finished cleaning the last step at the top. My back was aching, but I felt a small flicker of satisfaction. One less thing to do. I decided to go to the next task that Helga had plann

Chapter 12

Lyra’s pov“Follow me.” He ordered again as I swallowed hard and wondered if he could not see that I was busy cleaning up his mate’s mess.It was almost like these people were after me today. Just this morning alone I had been poured cold water by hell knows what time, I had done multiple messages of cleaning and mopping just to be punished to mop everything all over again.I glanced at the floor, realizing I hadn’t even finished yet. “I’m still cleaning, Alpha,” I murmured, hopefully praying that he would understand and leave me be.His eyes flashed with a dangerous light and a low growl rumbled in his chest. “I said follow me.” His voice lowered in a threatening manner. “Or you will regret it.”I swallowed hard and shook my head. “Yes, I…” My mouth became so dry I couldn’t speak. Finally, I gasped out, “Yes Alpha.” He didn’t say anything else as he began walking away from me, his strong steps making the floor pulse beneath me. I hurried after him only to slip on the wet floor and l

Chapter 13

Lyra’s pov He frowned at me and said, "You all right?" I slumped down in one of the empty chairs by the door, too tired to give a damn how I looked. “Okay?” I choked out with a bitter laugh. “Oh, how could I possibly be okay? The alpha sent me here on foot to deliver like five different piles of letters and now I don’t even know if I’m going to be alive long enough to get back. He’s… he’s evil. Wicked.” The man rose from where he was sitting and made his way over towards me cautiously, his eyes losing their edge and softening with something that looked almost like pity. “The alpha sent you here on foot?” “Yes,” I muttered, angrier than ever as I held up the crumpled papers and pointed to them as if they were my backup. “And then he’s called you and now I’m supposed to cart Twelve crates of documents all the way back to the pack house. On foot. One by one.” The guy winced, his mouth thinning into a line of silent comprehension before he ultimately said, “That sucks,” he said with

chapter 14

Lyra’s povI felt shaky all over, my body heavy like I had been carrying barbells on my limbs and my mind coated with a deep fog. How had I even gotten this far without dropping dead?Derek sat there behind the desk and looked at me the way a predator looks at its prey. It seemed like my words had hit him by surprise.In the corner of my eye, I saw the stable boy, holding a broom, looking on in shocked disbelief as I finally found the words to speak.“Alpha” I managed to whisper through a gasp “please… I can't, I need to rest. Stop sending me messages for now, please. I’ve done all you’ve asked and since morning I’ve worked myself to the bone.”The boy’s mouth dropped open and his eyes goggled at me in stunned disbelief. But Derek didn’t even waste a second glance at him. He merely nodded sharply at the stable boy, “Leave. Now.”The boy didn’t need to be told twice. He ran out of the room, and I heard the door shut and lock quietly behind him. The silence in the room that followed was

Chapter 15

Lyra’s povI walked on for hours but it felt like I wasn’t even getting anywhere.Tall trees surrounded me. It was dark, almost night while I was looking for this damned creature. Where was it? Where had it gone? I looked around the forest and the trees seemed to grow so close together that there was no space between them. The ground felt soft as if I were walking on a sponge or clouds. There were no sounds except for my own breathing which came loud - too loud. I stopped trying to make the sounds but the breathing continued.There was a smell of mouldy earth and leaves everywhere – it filled my nose with an awful scent and made me feel sickly. It seemed like a damp autumn day just before everything perished.Also, the forest seemed not to end – ever. After walking for what seemed hours, I began to realise how lost and alone I was.My feet were blistered from long hard trekking all day and I needed rest. My legs felt weak as jelly; certainly, they would no longer uphold me unless sup

Chapter 16

Lyra’s povThe forest was silent now, other than a few leaves rustling and crickets chirping miles away. I sat there staring at the lifeless body of the lynx. My heart was still racing from the chase but now everything was quiet, as my hands shook trying to warm myself while rubbing my arms.I looked around, hoping that someone, anyone, would come to help me. But the forest stayed silent and no one came. The realization sunk in full force; I really was all alone.I looked over the cliff I was sitting on and noticed that a drop-down in that place would be deadly and I wouldn’t even survive it.I silently thanked the moon goddess for such a wonderful hero who had saved me from almost dying. With a smile, I got to my feet and stretched my body as I brushed off my dirty old dress with disdain. I had to get back to the packhouse but which way was it? They all looked the same, trees upon hundreds of trees…which didn’t make any sense because they were always supposed to appear different each

Chapter 17

Stefan’s POV. She couldn’t eat anything from the kitchen, even after Vicky came into the building to her, all she cared about was Katherine leaving the house as soon as possible. It’s been two days since the wedding and she still couldn’t associate with anyone in the house like she used to. I had so much on my mind to let her know and also had so much she needed to also tell me about. I tried to knock on her door since the early morning sun had risen and was already dispersing its rays. There was nothing more important than having my kid sister back to her senses because I needed to talk to her. “Open up Laura, aren't you going to come out and speak to me? Come on sister, you can’t leave like this forever, you have to socialize at least.” I called out. While I knocked, Vicky came across me and decided to take on from where I had left off. She knocked and pleaded Laura came out. “Laura?! Laura! Come on, open up, we need you to out of there, please, there’s no need to starve yourse

Chapter 18

Lyra’s pov Helga’s footsteps seemed to ring out as she marched in front, posture straight with her face as stern as ever. I trailed behind, feeling every inch of my body ache from hours on end of hard work. My clothes were reduced to rags and I could feel the filth sticking to my skin, a reminder of the punishment I had to endure nowadays. I could see other people who worked in the packhouse looking handsome and beautiful and they smelled better than I did while I looked like the filth of the pack. I was treated like one so it wasn’t far-fetched to look like it. At the top of the stairs, Helga stopped and indicated with a nod of her head towards the end of the corridor. “You go meet the Alpha,” she said with a stern voice, “And don’t even think of keeping him waiting.” I felt my throat tighten, it was so dry I could hardly swallow. “Yes, Helga,” I answered in a low voice. She gave me a look that said so much before she turned and left for the corridor leading to a balcony. I took

Chapter 19

Lyra’s povI stood outside, staring at my dark fingernails which had pieces of dirt in them as I could see my bruised knees from my height.I could hear all the alpha could say from the room as I held back the tears threatening to burst out."See to it that she does what I have asked her to do,” the alpha said as my heart sank again. "I will not have anyone, no matter what their rank, believe they can defy me or my decisions."I made fists and swallowed the dryness in my throat as I stood outside the room.“If she defies you, whip her. It’s that simple. Don’t use the normal whip, use the whips for horses and cows.”“But sir…” Helga interjected. “Wouldn’t that hurt the young lady? You can see that she has so many bruises and I just want to let you know that if we hit her even more she could bleed out.”This was supposed to be enough to tell the alpha that he had crossed the line and he needed to chill a bit, but what he did next shocked me.I heard his hand bang on his table as his gro

Chapter 20

Lyra’s povHer arms were crossed and her smile was one of disgust. “Where do you think you’re going?” she mocked.I stopped, trying to find my voice. “I… I need to go to my room.” My voice was barely above a whisper. “I haven’t had a bath in days. Please, just a moment so I can clean myself.”Anna’s smile grew bigger as she tilted her head. “Oh? Really? You want a bath?” She turned back to Helga–who stood behind me looking mean as ever and said sweetly, “Helga, have you been pouring cold water on her every morning as I have told you?”“Yes,” Helga replied, deadpan. “Every morning to wake her up from her sleep.”Anna turned back to me, her eyes bright with malice. “There,” she said, spreading her arms as if it had all been a riddle and she had found the answer. “You have all the washing you need, don’t you?”I could feel the lump lodging itself deeper into my throat as fresh, hot tears welled in my eyes. “Please…” My voice wavered under the pressure. “Please, can I just change? I’ve…I’
